120% tex stretch

Nevermind I thought the Duck had put his 4k in but I remember now on my Desktop Kickstarter tracker(which shows in blue text whenever a new pledge is amde and exactly how much ) the donation was more like $3xxx. So I guess he is still to come unless the duck couldn't get his tightly sealed vault open enough to get those extra bucks out.

He just couldn't part with his #1 dime, the first money he ever earned

why am seeing 563k instead of 570k that someone posted earlier or tracker not updated?

Paypal's at 9k+, but it's not included in the Kickstarter panel to the right.

its looking like $9,000 gets to our 30% goal

Yeah, this is incredible. I was really having some doubts that we would reach our 30%, but now its looking like its within reach for tomorrows work.

Ummm... WOW! 24 hours to go and we're nearly at the 130% goal! KUDOS to everyone!
Well, we've heard the people - and if we exceed the 130% mark - there will be expanded gameplay, more recognizable actors... and maybe even a musical number. You guys are the best!!! The next 24 hours should be rather exciting!!!

Can't wait!

I hope this possible "musical number" is along the lines of Lucy Luv in Pandora, or maybe a lounge singer scene, or else some sort of extra that you can watch outside of the gameplay. While I enjoy a good musical, someone randomly breaking out in song just doesn't fit in a Tex Murphy game.

I agree Matt. Honestly, I feel the same way about the golf game. Doesn't sit well with me unless when you take your first swing as tex, he releases the club and it goes flying. I'd rather have the money put towards something for tex-based than a golf game. I mean, if you want to play golf, go outside and play golf.

Haha yeah. Imagine you step out onto Chandler Avenue the first time in the game and suddenly as you step off the fire escape all the residents of the street come running out of their respective businesses/lodgings/dumpsters and start parading down the street singing about their lives like something out of Avenue Q:

Clint: "Hey Rook hows your life?"
Rook: "Dissapointing"
Clint: "Why?"
Rook: "When I was little I thought I would be, a comemmorated WW3 hero on New San Francisco Voice"
Clint: "Haha Oh"
Rook: "But now I'm a Mutant and as you can see, I'm not"
Clint: "Nope"
Rook: "Oh well. It sucks to be me! It sucks to be mutated and running a pawn shop, it sucks to be me."
Clint: "Your problems aren't so bad. I'm kind of a chocoholic and pretty damn homeless."
Rook: "Of course"
Clint: "I like anything to do with chocolate like chocolate pie and chocolate bars. And as you know I have a chocolate business. So why don't I have a home? It sucks to be me!"
Rook: "It sucks for me too! It sucks to be Rook and Clint."
Clint: "To not have a home"
Rook: "To be mutated"
Rook and Clint: "It sucks to be us!"

OK as a funny easter egg when you're exploring some random trashcan on the street and trigger something but other than that... just jarring.

maybe tex will get drunk & start singing,actually what has amused me is in UAKM & Pandora tex drinks & in overseer he tells sonny fletcher he is not a drinker!

Extended version of Hot and Cold with more lyrics please!!

That would be kinda cool if Tex played on a piano again and did some extended version or some completely new funny song.

Wow, I really got a giggle out of seeing this post this morning!

Ok, blame Cathy for my pledge. I mean, it's one thing to send your Femme Fatales out to seduce backers into the fold, but I REALLY did it for the cat who's helping her type in her Avatar. (Just say it with me... "Good kitty.")

I wonder if I have time to make a quick Texcat Textimonial... but I have to fricken' work today! I'll try to think up a script, unless someone else would like to take over the creative part. (cough, cough all you creative writers out there...) It was a late night last night on G+ thanks to JerryDan! Something less than a minute I'm guessing.
And WOW, we are at $573K!

redcat, is there a tex murphy group on google+
